Therefore said he to them, The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few: pray you therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth laborers into his harvest. Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves. …
~Luke 10:2-3~
He said go! Thank you Lord! Grab a cup of coffee, sit back, and watch God move. We're Going!
Hold on Number six, we're coming! And while we're at it... You too number seven!

And do not fear what they fear, nor be in dread.But the Lord of hosts, him you shall honor as holy. Let him be your fear, and let him be your dread.And he will become a sanctuary

Isaiah 8:12b-14a

For if the Lord be for us who then can be against us? I try not to fear. I know the Lord has plans for us. I know He has called us to adopt these precious babes. I know He is faithful. What else do I need?

I have been feeling helpless lately. With little luck fundrasing and such a huge number staring us in the face it's easy to become discouraged. But do you know what? My God is so awesome and faithful! Right when I started talking about maybe looking for a no interest adoption loan he opens the flood gates. I got several messages all at once offering to help! And help they have!

The first, "Save the Starfish Boutique", sells beautiful jewelry and
100% of the proceeds benefit our adoption!! and when we are done
adopting she will pick a new family to support. It is a beautiful
ministry and the jewelry is lovely!

The first day open she brought a large jump to our Family Sponsorship Page!

The next, Ginger on a Mission . She gives 50% of the
sale price to adopting families! If you put "Tannehills/http://reecesrainbow.org/60992/sponsortannehill" in the comments section
at checkout! She makes lovely sandwich bags, credit card cases, and
other hand made items. They are SUPER cute! I personally bought them for
my daughters and nieces for Christmas to support another adopting
family.

This still looks huge but you know what? It use to read $23,582.28 still needed! He is faithful!!!
We have a Yard sale planned this weekend, an online auction starting shortly after, and others who are still helping us fundraise! Please continue to pray for us as we travel this road the Lord has set before us!!

Thank you all! As always, prayer for smooth and quick paperwork is appreciated!

About Me

This is the journal of a women who has made up her mind to trust God in every area of her life. I struggle and I fall but the Lord is His unfailing love lifts me back up. He has blessed me with a husband that I love dearly and five beautiful children. Our youngest has Cerebral Palsy. The Lord is teaching us much.
There are tasks that the Lord has given us that I struggle with. We believe in home. We learn at home. We play at home. We grow at home. Our hope is to turn this homestead of ours into a place where we can live off of nothing but the good Lord's mercies. These are the accounts of my daily struggle to put ALL of my trust in the Lord my God.
